Blythe et al can try use euro zone crsis to punch it back to 20's, probably in March and with CME margin increase, and can cover like crazy when paperbugs are guillotined. They don't even need to give explanation why they have to increase margin upon liquidity crisis.
Perhaps it could be the last time, and they don't need to care if you don't trust the system anymore, as when it collaspes someone else can be blamed.
F the Comshorts. Let'em run in front of this freight train and have them slit their own financial throat. With Europe in tatters, lack of confidence in the Crimex, and more curreny devaluation to occur in the immediate future; short at your own peril
we should hang jamie dimmon and ben Bernanke they are the big terrorists killing Innocent people all over the world specially in middle east for oil
I think the lynched the wall street would be the nwo induced reaction & solution via the problem they created. Check who is behind the occupy movement. Of course lynching the wall street cannot slove the real problem.
I guess the banking elites is only a hierarchy to be disposed after they fulfilled their mission. At higher hierarchy is "spiritual" not financial, and NWO is not really for purpose of personal wealth somewhere offshore. It is for something more grandose, expansion of regional conflict to world war, if they can.
Zbig said long ago that he thinks there would be riots across the streets.
doc, i see 893 how do you get to 4639 ?
He added he reduction in longs to the additional shorts 893 +3746 = 4369. Seems like inventive accounting somehow but I'm no expert in these comes figures. Hope you get an explanation.

I'mm no expert at typing either. I meant " in these COMEX figures" in the above post.
Jeorge
oh.. Thank you,
In this case that's not only short.
To my knowledge the Cartel is not long.
Thx again Jeorge.
Just in case there IS a smackdown in March, now is the time to start setting aside fiat in order to BTFD.
It is always prudent to have some dry powder laying around...
Calculating the commercial's NET short position is not inventive account, its simple arithmatic. The commercials as of Tuesday held a total of 60,304 short positions, partially offset by 35,283 long positions. This equals a NET short position of 25,021 contracts. In the week ending Tues 1/24, they added 893 new shorts, and reduced their longs by 3,746, which equals a 4,639 contract increase in the commercial's NET short position.
Thanks Doc, some people have issues with the term "net" :) as it can be confusing. BTW, that is ONLY 125,105,000 oz. short or $4,253,570,000 which I am sure that they could up with at moments notice. Don't forget all the derivitives and OTC bullshit too. The CTFC is a fucking joke.

What gives DOC? I know this is a little off subject but, normally about this close to expiry, silver has been smacked down. Am I missing something? Can it be after years of smacking the Chuckle-heads will have no smack down. Or is this just wishful thinking and the smack down will come tomorrow? Conax, AGXIIK, Mammoth, ILUVPMS, anyone? This is kind of weird. Been on the site a couple of hours and seen no comments.

Maybe SLV is running dry?
Thanks for your explanation on the Net Short position, Doc. Like I said, I'm not a typist, nor, as is obvious, a mathematician.

I believe the smack down failed, following double whammy of the sprott effect and the market reaction to the fed meeting on thursday. We might need to wait till next month for the next smackdown to occur.
Thanks ANON 1:30. I hope you're right about the Sprott effect. I didn't even think about Sprott 'cause I'm so used to seeing the smack-down. We'll see what happens Sunday night
